Ceri will be bringing along some favourite ladies from his new show EYEcons which features new characters including Cilla Black, Lady Gaga and Joan Rivers as well as some old favourites such as Dolly Parton, Cher and Shirley Bassey.

Ceri, one of the finest female impersonators in the world, brings a touch of glamour and Hollywood Showbiz to any evening with his spectacular costumes and brilliant comedy patter.

The Times newspaper wrote: “I’ve seen hundreds of men dress up as a woman over the years, most of them disastrously so, a handful of them get this particular art form right, Ceri Dupree is one of that handful.” 

Now in their 21st year, The Golden Handbags celebrate everything positive and uplifting about the LGBT scene in Brighton and Hove and take place at the Brighton Hilton Metropole Hotel on Sunday, June 12, starting at 7.30pm.

♦ Who is top and who is bottom?

♦ What is your favourite bar or club and which is your favourite voluntary sector organisation?

♦ Who is your favourite bar person or DJ

These are all questions that get answered on the night.

This year’s awards will once again be raising money for local good causes. All voting will take place online only and goes live at midnight on Tuesday, April 26.

The evening will be hosted by the sharpest tongue in Brighton, Lola Lasagne and the lineup of artists appearing include local favourites Maisie Trollette, Miss Jason and star of the voice Elesha Paul Moses.
